The start of
Katrina
These pictures were made by a man in
Magee, MS where the eye of the storm
passed through.
What an experience.
Magee is 150 miles North of Waveland,
Mississippi where the Hurricane made
land fall.
Worth passing on!!!
The dance with Katrina, part of her
beauty as she left destruction on her
exit.
They are remarkably dramatic.
The following picture was taken from the
third story balcony of Saint Stanislaus
College located next door to Our Lady of
the Gulf church in Bay Saint Louis,
Mississippi on the morning of August
29th, 2005.
This is believed to be the initial tidal
wave from Hurricane Katrina. The tidal
wave was approximately 35 to 40 feet
high. When it slammed into the beach
front communities of Bay Saint Louis and
Waveland Mississippi to completely
destroy 99% of every structure along the
beach for 9 miles and over of a mile
inland.
The destruction only started there. The
flooding that continued inland
destroyed the contents of all but 35
homes in these two communities of
approximately 14,000 people. |
